As a medical library of a large academic hospital we want our users to go to our resources the right way.
We have created an outside tool in PUBMED which enables everybody to see clearly what the availablility of the publications is. For it to work, you need to use the correct link with reference to the accountname belonging to this outside tool. This is nothing new, it is used by many libraries in the world.
The problem is that many of our users do NOT use the link to PUBMED form our website but just enter pubmed.gov of pubmed.org in the browser-location bar and therefore do NOT get our RUGLINKS
Possible solution:
If your organization uses some kind of firewall, you can ask the it-department to change the setting of the firewall in such a way that all outgoing url's to PUBMED are redirected to your correct library-url to PUBMED.
www.pubmed.gov
www.pubmed.com

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi? to
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?otool=inlugrmlib&holding=F1000
This should result in many more hits in your stats of PUBMED!

For testing i used this article: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2016.10.008 (not free or open access) Kopernio (previously Canary Haz ( http://kopernio.com) Note this is a .com extension. This new company has been founded just 8 months ago. The Kopernio extension was released just in March 2017. Currently the Kopernio button is in alpha-testing and so far it seems free. The previous name appeared to be a tribute to the #ICANHAZPDF movement (requesting pdf's via Twitter with this hashtag). ...
